No BMW in Transporter 3?!?

vladinecko · 10-13-2008, 09:45 PM

i don't know about you but i was really hoping that after transporter 2, transporter 3 would bring back a bimmer or, at least, introduce a new vehicle. rather, they chose to go with audi again. and it isn't an exciting audi either, yet another old A8. boooooooooo!

i'm a really big fan of the transporter franchise so i'll still go see it but i'm really disappointed by the car they chose.

I'll tell you what, I'll come round tonight in the M3, hit you over the head and throw you in the boot and drive over some rough roads if that will help you sleep better?

Meh, the second one sucked anyways.

audi's paying big bucks these days to get their stuff sponsored in almost all the new movies (hitman - S5, iron man - R8, transporter 2,3, etc)

S4to335 · 10-14-2008, 01:09 PM

Audi has been paying dearly for car placements in movies these days. BMW should belly up to the bar more...

TheCyrax · 10-14-2008, 01:25 PM

Ironman had a S5 as well....
Also, don't forget about Irobot and that weird R8-looking concept thing

yeah I thought that was pretty cool. but if you watch iRobot again, pretty much every car was an audi (lots of TTs lol).

HAHAHA thank you for mentioning that part, haha you made my day. wow that was sooo messed up.

NYBMW335 · 10-14-2008, 03:12 PM

What about when he drove in between the two buildings after jumping from the car garage. I love the original Transporter, it was semi-realistic. Running away from the police and stuff, that was amazing. But transporter 2, it was horrible.

My friend purchased an Audi R8 and he got a copy of transporter 2 from the dealer. So i guess audi is going to the extreme to sponsor movies.

they also had a mercielago in transporter 2

That was hilarious. I saw the movie in the theater and the entire audience had the same reaction.

TK-421 · 10-14-2008, 05:24 PM

It should be an S8 at least...

E38 7 Series was so gorgeous.

when i was watching that scene for the first time i was wondering how they were going to have him lose the bomb. that definitely beat each of my guesses and i remember myself saying out loud "oh commoooon!"

the first one is definitely a classic though. that's why i hoped they would resurrect the franchise with inclusion of a BMW as the headlining vehicle and some good-old jason statham action. one of those hopes is already shattered (audi), let's see if they walk over the other one as well.

Apparently they are using the S8... I thought at first they were using the A8 W12 again...
